Why is Rubio leading again??? God help us!

I just donated to Patrick Murphy's campaign. I am usually asked to donate to several campaigns but I have not been asked to donate to his.

And I have heard virtually NO advertising for him. Just this one for Rubio that says something negative about Murphy.

I can't stand the thought that Rubio will be elected again! What is being done to stop that? (I know I am late to the game.....forgive me)


Rubio is the biggest slime. Remember he ALWAYS votes with the NRA.


Patrick Murphy could make great gains if he did some ads about Rubio's support for the NRA, his absentee rate, his anti-woman stance, (voting to allow any company or insurance company to refuse to pay for a woman's contraception), His votes against jobs bills and against veterans.


This is from Wikipedia

Rubio’s absentee rate of 41 percent puts him at the 100th percentile, which means that in the past year, he has had a worse voting record than every other sitting senator. In contrast, the Senate median absentee record for the past year is just 1 percent.

I'm wondering why I have not heard much about this race.

If only we could get out the bad things about Rubio.

It kind of sickens me to think he will just be elected again.
